Vicksburg Police and the Warren County Sheriff's Department have arrested three suspects in the armed robbery and kidnapping of a 76-year-old man in the Rainbow Casino parking lot Monday morning.

Police say the suspects forced the man at gunpoint back into his car. He was robbed of $190 and then forced to drive to a nearby bank to withdraw another $250. The man was not hurt.

Twenty-four-year-old Lance Burton, 20-year-old Kodey Goulette and 21-year-old Misty Lee, all of Vicksburg, have been charged with armed robbery and kidnapping and are being held without bond pending their initial appearance.

Burton and Goulette are also charged with felony shoplifting that allegedly occurred on Sept. 15 at the Halls Ferry Road Home Depot.
